2009 Vette Concept -- If Only They Would Build It?

Well... Here's a view of the '09 corvette concept, apparently being shown at the Chicago Auto Show.

Autoblog

.... wonder if GM is seriously considering building it?

Nope. I wouldn't.

Looks like a modern day Batmobile.

Re: 2009 Vette Concept -- If Only They Would Build It?

Billed as a concept car one-off for some animated movie ...
I'd expect to see the side profile carried forward to the Gen 7 Corvette ... whenever that happens. Front and rear looks like styling musings ...
BTW ... I think they have Z06 rotors on it ... the one-way holes ... ray rearward on the left, forward on the right ...

I could see a toned down version of that happening. A bit much as it sits though.

It looks much like the nightmare I had last night.

With the present government administration and their idea of what we all should be driving, I think we can kiss the Camaro and Corvette goodbuy.
